**This is a small moment in many that happened last evening as I retired. I heard the splash from the traffic passing below...water and rain ! I went to open the windows to take in a deep breath. I was eased and then rested, full for the night.
I heard the sound of easy
Raindrops as they fell
In liquid kisses gentle
This tender nature's bell
There's something so extravagant
In simple drops of rain
Erasing stressful tightness
In a world half gone insane
It sets our pace to e-a-s-y
Then comforts TIME just when
The news screams out with ugly
Dismembered frames of pain
Rain is nature's way of a massage
For the times when life gets bold
When some are scared and hungry
Some orphaned and sleep cold
Rain is nature's kind caress
Her kiss to let us know
No matter what's uncomfortable
For the moment let it go!
:) I knew you would do rain proud when I saw the title, Susan, and you did! Living in the desert, I find a hollowing yearning that rarely leaves and fills my heart and mind. This summer's monsoon was a bust, my soul feels...dusty. You've given me a touch of solace through your rain-imaged words. :)

What a wonderful soul you have and so masterfully expressed in your feeling Brava.
This brought immediate sensations of those kisses of rain. It is not merely the caress of their cleansing drops but the renewal of life as breathed in. Beautifully done, Susan
